Burnley (h) FA Cup 3rd Round pre-match thread

[St.Pauli support]

Would anyone really want to miss the delights of City v Fleetwood or Yeovil in the next round or be sat watching the final in May when the likes of Arsenal and Everton walk out instead of City? Win this and go on to win the Cup, it's still a special trophy and I'd be glad to get Tottenham in the final and finally avenge 1981.

Good shout.
Last match for Burnley has been on Monday, next one is a week after. I don't quite buy that "rotation" talk from Dyche.

I think Pep will put out a team much stronger than many expect and control the game. And feed Sergio...
Rest Walker, David and Komps.

The heroes from Leicester might take on Bristol (except Foden and Jesus of course).
Rest some top players for Liverpool, where Pep certainly doesn't want to lose again.
Just my thoughts.

As full strengtg as we can. There can be no messing around with Burnley. Rotation for Bristol City and full strength again for Liverpool.

We don't even need a big win vs Bristol.
2-0 would be too much for them, maybe even 1-0.
If they have a go at us in the 2nd leg we'll be through after 20 mins.
Over 2 legs, no problems.

Hard line up to guess due to fixture congestion.

Dyche saying he will field a much changed line up.

Usually a man of his word.

Don’t understand why? They have a full week before their next game.

Saying that two games in three days doesn't give some of his players enough time to recover.

I still think he will put out a decent side as far as their strengths are but we will dominate possession and hopefully put away a few of the numerous chances we will create.

History in recent time has shown that most PL teams rotate heavily in the early rounds of the competition. I don't see this as been any different. But Burnley will be competitive
no doubt and we will need to play well to beat them. We will rest a number of players how many it is hard to say as the Bristol game complicates matters. Obviously the tie with Bristol City represents our best chance of getting to a final this season and a good home victory by say 2 goals should easily be enough to seal that place. lf we go out against Burnley that would give us a couple of free weekends which may turn out to be a blessing in disguise.

I think the team won’t be too far off the same team that played against Leicester in the League Cup quarter final.

The A team will be back out against Bristol City I reckon considering that game is on Tuesday and we don’t play Liverpool until 4pm Sunday.
